Here are 12 ready-to-use, challenging and fun Valentine's Day Activities (with answer keys) that will get your students to use their head in this time of the heart.
The focus is on Critical Thinking Skills, but there is also some Math and Language Arts as well. Includes practice with logical thinking, deductive reasoning, computation, homophones, spatial skills and more. You will not find brainless word searches or computer generated crossword puzzles here! Great for early work, enrichment, or homework.
The pages are in color for the document camera but will print out fine in grayscale.

Do you have a Valentine would you rather page? I've used all your other ones and love them.

You know it's funny, I started to write one a couple weeks ago and it just didn't feel right...I kept coming up with questions that felt too adult (love theme), or that seemed like they could lead to unpleasant conversations about friendship and Valentines. Anyway, I did a Mad Lib Activity instead: http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/FREE-Valentines-Mad-Lib-Activity
And I will probably do a St.Patrick's Day Would You Rather. So glad you like them!

My passion is creating high quality, ready-to-use teaching resources. I believe our future depends on our children being able to think creatively and critically, so I incorporate higher level thinking skills into almost everything I create.
Most of my experience is in gifted education grades 1-4. But I have also taught regular education to all elementary grade levels. I've taught workshops on writing and have had extensive experience teaching elementary science as well as technology.
I have also written a series of 6 creative and critical thinking books for Evan-Moor as well as several other books of teacher materials.
In addition, I am a published author of over 100 nonfiction books for children on a variety of subjects.
You can see the books I've written here:

I am also the author of several blogs:
Minds in Bloom
(FacilitatingCreative and Critical Thinking Skills)
SoS on TpT
(Tips and Strategies for selling successfully on TpT)
"Quotes" for Teachers
(An organized collection of quotes to use in your classroom)
I am also an administrator on:
"Tchr2Tchr
(Articles, contests, and Linky Parties from TpT sellers)
And of course there is also Facebook and Twitter
